Continuous Resistance Welding Method and Associated Component

Simple SummaryContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

This patent describes a continuous resistance welding process, specifically a roll seam welding method, for producing metallic components. The key innovation is the continuous supply of a wire-shaped filler material to the welding area, enabling the metallic part to be built up in layers during the process.
